  • Notes 

    • No record of William at Salem, I don't know when he died, but am told that he died after an accident with a threshing machine.
      He was brought into the farmhouse from the fields, but the injuries were so severe that he bled to death.
      The 1861 Census has him listed as Single, and living in Ameliasburg Twp.
      Caroline was the daughter of Jacob Carnrike (1802-1882) and Mary Parliament (1806-1887) and was an older sister to Selim Carnrike, who married Wm Henry's sister Deborah Ann.
      Caroline is buried in Salem Cemetery. The headstone reads May 7, 1856 but the stone is broken in to two pieces. There is a another piece nearby, which reads 21 years and 1 month, and I presume this to be related to Caroline. The birth and death dates were provided by Cheryl Carnrike.

      William Henry and Catherine were married on February 26, 1861.
      Catherine was the daughter of Sylvanus Trumpour (Aug 1804 - March 1, 1875 of Hillier Twp) and Susan Holt (1807-___). Sylvanus was the son of Paul Trumpour, born 1781 in Rhineveck, NY and Catherine Doxsee, born about 1783 in ____________.
      Sylvanus and Susan also had 3 other children, Samuel H., Andrew, and Rebecca.
      William Henry and Catherine had 1 son together - John Byron, born in 1865.

      The 1866 County Directory listed Wm Henry under Hillier Township on the 1st Concession Lot 32H. I believe that he may died that summer of 1866.
      Catherine was remarried to a John Bishop of Sophiasburg on September 30, 1867.
